Dalbavancin-resistant selection following a prosthetic joint infection: phenotypic and genomic characterization.

Background: Dalbavancin is a lipoglycopeptide antibiotic with a wide spectrum of activity against Gram-positive bacteria, including MDR isolates. Its pharmacokinetic properties and administration patterns could be useful for the treatment of bone and joint infections, especially prosthetic joint infections (PJIs).

Introduction: We report the case of an 80-year-old man who experienced an acute periprosthetic joint infection of his right total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Biofilm of Cutibacterium acnes: a target of different active substances.

Staphylococcus succinus Infective Endocarditis, France.

Infective endocarditis is a rare condition in humans and is associated with high illness and death rates. We describe a case of infective endocarditis caused by Staphylococcus succinus bacteria in France. We used several techniques for susceptibility testing for this case to determine the oxacillin profile.
